If you look closely at the background in the first picture you can see a man on a trapeeze. You don’t see that often, unless you happen to be at the…circus.

Emma and her cousin Landry were very cooperative in a very stressful atmosphere. We got to the circus just as it was starting and the stands were packed. We thankfully found some seats. Here they are cheering on the high wire motorcycle act.

Kenny also did some cheering and some flirting with a high school girl sitting behind us.

We end here with another hug shot of the two girls. We did leave a little early from the circus as the girls wanted to play in the park before it got dark, but overall we had a fun time at the circus.

It has actually been pretty hot and humid here in Wisconsin. As a result Kenny and Emma have been out in the pool some. Kenny will soon be replacing his yellow Eskimo Joe’s onesie for an official swim/surfing t-shirt. Emma was trying out new hairdo, but wasn’t much into smiling for the camera.

Tammy and I watched Breakfast at Tiffany’s somewhat recently and when when Emma draped a scarf around her head like so, she made me think of the many stylish women of the ’60s such as Audrey Hepburn (Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis also came to mind). The band aid on the forehead just added to the glamour.

The Swanstrom family attended cousin Carter Ternberg’s baseball game this evening. I will try to post a couple action shots from the game. These shots though are of Emma’s injury. She was having lots of fun playing with cousin Landry when she tripped and bonked her head on the corning of a fold up chair. She bonked her head one other time like this a year ago and she swelled up significantly, but this was even bigger. She is doing fine now. Within 10 minutes she was back playing and this evening most of the swelling was gone. She also bruises easily, so we will have to see how it looks tomorrow.
